Little tidbits about how I'm seeing the Lord work daily. Come on in!
The older I get, the less I feel like people want to be vulnerable and honest and go deep with me. The same is true with roles reversed, I find myself sometimes being okay with the same old shallow conversations. I feel a tug at my heart each time it happens. Aching for more. I [...]
Today, I had the day off from work. I’ve been working like crazy and all I wanted to do all day was be outside. So somehow I walked 7 miles, half of which I walked at Radnor Lake. This morning, I was listening to John Eldredge’s Pause app and it asked me to think about [...]
Dear friend going through sorority recruitment, I'm thinking about you and praying for you during this time. Every August, my mind always jumps to thoughts about those going through recruitment so soon. It's already crazy enough to be moving to a new city and beginning your college career, but to also throw in recruitment can [...]
We all can agree on the simple fact that 2020-2021 hasn't exactly been the season we planned or hoped for. We've lost people we loved. Jobs have been lost, hard decisions have been made, and often it feels like there's no gas left to put in our tanks. We're running on empty. I've been thinking [...]
Do you ever think about the faith you had as child? The faith you had in your parents to take care of you; the faith you had in Jesus to be your Lord and Savior; the faith you had in some consistency in schedule with school, family, etc. Or maybe you had none of that. Maybe over time you grew to lack faith in your family or didn’t begin to know Jesus from a young age.
Every six months, my department has a half day of prayer offsite individually. A few weeks ago I had my first half day of prayer with work. I wasn’t sure what it would be like, praying for 4 hours consecutively. I don’t think I’ve ever done that before. I had been looking forward to it [...]
I work at an addiction treatment center and it’s pretty much my favorite place in the entire world. Women walk through our doors to receive the help they need. None of them look alike. None of them have the same story, but they have a common thread: addiction wreaking havoc on their lives. I’ve had [...]
As some of you know, I recently started working full-time for a non-profit. I love what they do and how they empower women in their recovery. The battle against addiction is hard and scary and for some it’s really lonely. I’m so excited to be cheering on the women in our facility as they are [...]
I've heard people talk about having a word for the year, but that's not something I've ever really thought about or done. But 2020 makes ya rethink some things. So I sat down and thought about what I wanted 2021 to look like. What do I want it to be full of? What do I [...]
Something about the change of a year brings us hope. 2021 feels brighter. The first day of the year was an oddly sunny, warm day in Nashville. I can feel my spirit shift and my gaze is set on the fresh, new, shiny year. In reality, it is just another day in the story that [...]
